Chip Mong Insee Cement Corporation (CMIC) inaugurated a new industrial waste storage factor in Sihanoukville Special Economic Zone on 13 January, with the aim of providing sustainable waste management services to enterprises within the zone.

According to the Chip Mong Group Facebook page, this factory has a capacity to store up to 100 tons of waste. This is a part of the Chip Mong Ecocycle project, a sustainable industrial waste management project to reduce carbon emissions in Cambodia.

The industrial waste stored there will be later transported to the Chip Mong Ecocycle industrial waste disposal site at Chip Mong Insee Cement Factory in Banteay Meas district, Kampot province. (Read more)

According to the Ministry of Information, Chip Mong uses a well-known technology called eco-processing to manage the waste, meaning waste will be burnt in the incineration during the cement producing process without affecting the cement quality.

The technology has been used successfully in the United States, the European Union and Japan for over 40 years. And with this technology, Chip Mong Ecocycle will have the capacity to process about 10 tons of industrial waste per hour or about 7,000 tons per month.

This will help transform Cambodia towards a “green economy” by burning waste with less harm to the environment.
